| - I took my friend to David's' Bridal today for her first experience of trying on dresses. We didn't have expectations to find something on our first day shopping, but we actually found a surprising amount of dresses that we both really liked!
I am not sure if this is the best place to go if you want a ton of attention - they are very busy, and the staff tends to multiple girls at the same time. The changing rooms are small and close together. There are plenty of chairs though and plenty of mirrors.
I wish I could remember the name of the girl who helped us because she was very friendly and a good sport - she even let *me* try on dresses, knowing very well that I was not the one getting married. My daughter, who represents the many flower girls for the wedding, legitimately tried on dresses, but I am sure the sales representative knew she was also "playing" when we tried on matching dresses. This made the whole experience a lot of fun, and we walked out feeling excited about the dresses that we saw.
I think in this case, having the right sales rep makes all the difference. Based on other reviews, it sounds like we really lucked out.
The dresses were also really cheap, the most expensive one we liked was $1300, the others were in the $500 range. I almost walked out of there with a $30 tiara because it was shiny and yet so cheap (so okay, and fake)....but luckily I remembered how old I was and put it back.
